    Comments about Carver's Spoon Plane :

    I used it on the inside seams of a strip built canoe. Cedar is soft so it was plenti sharp and is the only tool that I could get into the area with. Worked as well as I hoped it would. Allows me better control than a scraper, able to cut nice smooth shaving off, just like a good plane.

    Blade doesn't match profile of bed

    Comments about Carver's Spoon Plane :

    The blade doesn't match the profile of the bed of the plane: it sticks out more toward the edges. I paid to have it sharpened too. I'll have to grind it down myself and resharpen it; not an easy task with a small blade and the curve. It also clogs easily and even has to have the blade loosened to clean it out sometimes. Too bad , because it could be a very useful tool. I have another palm plane that is curved front to back and not side to side that is very useful.

    Not for the Novice

    Comments about Carver's Spoon Plane :

    I am brand new to wood carving and decided to try carving a spoon as my first project. A Woodcraft employee recommended this product to me for carving out the bowl of the spoon, so I bought it. Because it comes unsharpened, I spent several hours just trying to figure out how to properly hone it. Many attempts with no success. A very frustrating product for a novice. No sharpening instructions on the product, and I haven't been able to find a demo on the Woodcraft website or anywhere else. I ended up having to buy a different tool to do the job.

    Comments about Carver's Spoon Plane :

    This convex blade comes unsharpened, and these blades are particularly difficult to sharpen. Although I have several books on the subject, there is very little guidance on how to do it properly - and without a well-sharpened blade, this is a useless tool.
